The samples were provided by the client. Test Procedures: The test specimens were evaluated in accordance with the following: TAS , Impact Test Procedures. TAS , Criteria for Testing Impact and Non Impact Resistant Building Envelope Components Using Uniform Static Air Pressure Loading. TAS , Criteria for Testing Products Subject to Cyclic Wind Pressure Loading. Drawing Reference: The test specimen drawings have been reviewed and verified by Architectural Testing and are representative of the samples tested. 130 Derry Court York, PA phone: fax:

3 Page 2 of 15 Test Specimen Description: Test Specimen #1 - #3: Series/Model: Brick Veneer Panel System (Densglas) Test Wall Description: The unit was installed onto an 8' 0-1/4" wide by 2' 9" tall Spruce-Pine-Fir wood wall, with 2x4 studs located 16" on center. Densglas sheathing was installed over the studs and secured with 1-5/8" drywall screws, located 2" from all corners and spaced 10" on center at each stud and around the perimeter. Test Specimen #4 - #6: Series/Model: Brick Veneer Panel System (OSB) Test Wall Description: The unit was installed onto an 8' 0-1/4" wide by 2' 9" tall Spruce-Pine-Fir wood wall, with 2x4 studs located 16" on center. OSB sheathing was installed over the studs and secured with 1-1/2" brad nails, located 2" from all corners and spaced 10" on center at each stud and around the perimeter. Product Type: Wall Panel System The following details apply to all test specimens. Overall Size: 8' 0-1/4" wide by 2' 8-3/4" high Individual Panel Size (4): 8' 0-1/4" wide by 8-3/16" high Finish: All veneer bricks were red. Test Specimen Description: A vapor barrier wrap was installed over the wall and secured with 3/8" crowned staples. Four 18 gauge (0.050") roll-formed steel interlocking panels were installed with 1" crowned staples located on each course around the perimeter and spaced 16" on center at each stud. Each panel was three brick courses high, resulting in 12 brick courses for the entire test specimen. The 7-1/2" wide by 2-1/4" high by 1/2" thick bricks were glued to the steel panels. All brick joints were then filled with mortar. A silicone sealant was used to seal the perimeter of the panel.

Upon completion of testing, specimens tested for TAS met the requirements of Section 1626 of the Florida Building Code, Building (2004). Upon completion of testing, specimens tested for TAS met the requirements of Section 1620 of the Florida Building Code, Building (2004). Upon completion of testing, specimens tested for TAS met the requirements of Section 1625 of the Florida Building Code, Building (2004). Tape and film were used to seal against air leakage during structural testing. In our opinion, the tape and film did not influence the results of the test. Testing was conducted at the Architectural Testing, Inc. laboratory located in York, Pennsylvania. List of Official Observers: Name Michael D. Stremmel, P.E. Eric M.
